Romance is a very popular genre in Webnovels. The first thing that come to mind when we talk about romance are the CEO novels. Even though we don't want to admit it, they are the mainstream romance stories in the Webnovel website. 

So why do people love romance stories? I hope you find the answer while reading this chapter.

----------------------------------

FattyBai: No worries, was just a bit curious. It's always amazing seeing how the Romance genre basically dominates the site.

Parasection: and CEO stories.

FattyBai: So I was sort of curious what the demographics on the reader's sex were. But yeah, it's a fair assumption to say that the ladies rule the site, lol

WWFire: Readers gender stats r ambiguous, it is manipulatable after all.

FattyBai: Unless there's this hidden group of guys who have been starving for CEO romance novels (which would actually be funny).

Parasection: But the sacred texts.

WWFire: All I see are genderless alien. *derp emoticon*

reinesse ♥: kek.

FattyBai: How do we pull in the female readers in if we can't write a romance story? *cry emoticon*

Parasection: No choice but to write yaoi then.

WWFire: We who read these kind of fantasy novels don't live our lives correctly pal.

CailinMatthews: *ghost hug emoticon*

Parasection: Give in to the demons.

WWFire: That's why we escape reality sometimes. 

FattyBai: It's like being offered a big cake and unable to take a slice.

Zehell2218: I think male reader have their own chance and market.

FattyBai: For sure, but it'd be nice to tap into both sides.

Zehell2218: @FattyBai I think I'll make fantasy romance so I can attract both.

FattyBai: I mean, it's not a bad idea, but how do you split it up? 50% romance/50% dragon ball z?


Parasection: The fuq that sounds like an abomination.

FattyBai: It does.

Zehell2218: @FattyBai No it's 80% romance 20% action. *joy emoticon*

Noveljunky: Besides Romance, what else do females like to read?

Parasection: BL, yaoi, drama.

Zehell2218: Still BL is romance.

Anjeeriku: horror lol.

reinesse ♥: @Noveljunky xianxia I think.

Noveljunky: Mmm.

Zenith: Well, need too write romance...kek

Zehell2218: Do female reader like to read apocalypse novel? Quick question since I will make fantasy romance in apocalypse.

[A/N: Sis, did you forget that you're a girl too?]

Totally Not Nano: nah oof.

FattyBai: @Zehell2218 Aww, man. But then you have to develop characters and write meaningful dialogue.

Zenith: I am probably gonna f*ck up my time trying to make a romance story.

FattyBai: We like blowing stuff up and fighting baddies.

Zehell2218: cmon it will be comedy. *laugh emoticon*

Parasection: The best thing in a novel is character development humor and action romance can be on the side.

Anjeeriku: Romance can be a great sub genre.

Parasection: how does one even write romance? I don't know where to begin with that genre.

FattyBai: I'm a simple guy, I see plot and I drown it in martial arts and manly stuff. Of course, I don't know what feelings are. Can you eat them to increase your cultivation base? *think smart emoticon*

Parasection: I've never experienced romance so i'd fail the moment i'd attempt a story like that.

Zehell2218: Actually, I like to write fighting scene but without romance my reader will kill me. So...yeah I tag it as romance! *joy emoticon*

Parasection: Fight scenes are fun to write.

FattyBai: I'm trying to break through into the "Immortal lonely sperg" phase~

Zehell2218: Very sloooooowww romance.

Anjeeriku: Please no abusive ML @Zehell2218 They're disgusting. idk why women like to read them.

Zehell2218: @Anjeeriku I don't know if girls who read xianxia will read apocalypse novel too.

reinesse ♥: I wanna write a novel like it's not easy to be a man after traveling to the future.

Zehell2218: @Anjeeriku No I won't make abusive ML. @reinesse ♥ same *joy emoticon*

Totally Not Nano: @Anjeeriku *cough* TBWWM *cough*

reinesse ♥: And an actual xianxia novel with reasonable characters.

Zehell2218: But without the romance it's bland.

reinesse ♥: Like characters, especially main character who knows how to adjust because extreme pride is not good.

FattyBai: @Zehell2218 Baby Dragon Truer words have not been spoken, and that scares me.

reinesse ♥: Some villains are really brainless. they can scheme, but they don't have a reasonable reason to do so

Zenith: Kek.

Zehell2218: @Zenith gramps I have idea for fantasy romance lemme tell you after I finish writing and see if it's interesting or not.

Zenith: Get the MC u desire! Yeah @Zehell2218 

FattyBai: I fear becoming a more wholesome and fleshed out human being. Please no development.

Zehell2218: @Zenith It's ok. Just want to see if people will find this good or not. *joy emoticon*

Totally Not Nano: I think there's a formula in getting famous as a writer.

[A/N: Oh? Such formula exist? Teach me Senpai!]

Totally Not Nano: Let's debate about it. *thinking emoticon*

Parasection: The formula is write romance and you're set.

Totally Not Nano: Any genre + xxxxxxx = top 1.

[A/N: Today… I lost faith in humanity.]

Noveljunky: If you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back.

Moonbirth: Write a lot. Write everyday. Post a lot everyday... write about what readers want to read about.

Anjeeriku: Write a lot. be a slave. Lol

Elyon knew that "Romance" is not his strong point. He writes a fantasy story with romance, but he can't tell if the romance will be able to attract female readers. Out of curiosity, he asked some of his fellow authors the question "Why do you read romance stories?"

Here are their answers…

Kyosei: Because I am single. 

Reili: To fill my empty void of a love life.

Minrei: Because romance let you feel what is to be loved, plus it is universal you dont need to learn magic or cultivation in order to read.

Bajj: Due to lack of romance irl.

Murakami: I read because I enjoy the friction and conflict between the FL and ML. The insistence vs resistance is naisu.

Qin: I reads romance only for ideas and info.

VlassisBehrakis: I don't read romance novels.

[A/N: Oof I asked the wrong person.]

Elyon then  ̶a̶m̶b̶u̶s̶h̶e̶d̶ asked some readers about their opinion about romance novels.

Yin: I read romance novels because I want that kind of drama to happen to me in real life. But I know it will never happen haha.

A Certain Irresistible Meowlin: I wonder why? And I do read romance novels. Though the chance of me dropping them is also the highest out of all the genres. Every so often I come across a scene that makes me just want to squeal and fangirl. 

----------------------------------

Elyon decided to dig deeper and asked a few of his senior "romance authors" some questions about their reason for writing romance stories.

The first question is… Why did you choose to write Romance Stories?

Anjeeriku: I'm comfortable writing romance stories compared to other genres. I'm a helpless romantic person and I like novels that can invoke other people's feelings.

Bajj: First of all, I like reading romance story. It was the reason why I read books before and reading other genres comes after. All in all, due to these romance fiction books, I got the opportunity to read more great books with different genre.

MishaK: That's what I read, so write that too.

Zehell2218: Because as reader, I want to read romance novel so when I write, I write romance since my motto is I write what I want to read.

Ikazainudin: The easiest genre. Everyone can relate.

End_of_Era: It wasn't a full on Romance, it was slice of life with romance which I feel was necessary with progression of the characters.

----------------------------------


The second question… When you were making your ML and FL, did you imagine yourself as the lead of your story at any given point in time?

Anjeeriku: I would be a liar if I said no. There were instances that I'd put myself in my FL's shoes. Whenever that happens, my writing feels more passionate and truthful that sometimes it was hard to know where my fl starts and where I end. 

Shen Yi, LMD's ML was based on a person I've lost, The One That Got Away so it was sometimes hard not to self-insert whenever there were scenes that need to invoke feelings from readers. 

Bajj: I believe that every character the author was making and breathing life into it, a part of him/her is added to its character. But me imagining of being the ML/FL, never. I'm too pure for that. Kek

MishaK: Yes I did but sometimes. Otherwise you can't infuse emotions in your characters. It is important to understand your characters.

Zehell2218: Yes, I imagine myself as the lead. Of course, I tweak it a bit, such as in age and appearance. But mostly, the characteristics is similar to me.

Ikazainudin: FL and ML character based on what I want to be irl. Yup. I imagine that will be my love story.

End_of_Era: Yes, my leads had some ocassional self insertion.

----------------------------------

The third question… If you were to choose some other genre aside from romance, what would you pick?

Anjeeriku: Fantasy. I always look up to those authors who can write fantasy stories/novels well. I believe writing a fantasy novel is harder than writing romance. 

[A/N: Ahem! 10 points to Griffindor!]

Bajj: Horror/thriller/Action. Read GGGB godamnit! [Good Girl Gone Bad]

MishaK: I am writing a Fantasy romance aside from regular vanilla romance *smile emoticon*

Zehell2218: Fantasy, magical realism, fan fiction.

Ikazainudin: Psychological/horror and maybe children story.

End_of_Era: The new genre I'm writing is fantasy/violent .

----------------------------------


The fourth and final question… If you were to give a message to your beloved readers, what would it be?

Anjeeriku: I'm sorry for not being inconsistent with updates. Y'all know I love you, but a little consideration and patience as I face this rough patch in my life would be very much appreciated.

Bajj: Vote me please :* mass release comes after, deal?

[A/N: Oof!]

MishaK: Be responsible in reviewing the book you are reading. Authors love to listen from their readers. So talk to them.

Zehell2218: Beloved reader, your author here is working hard to provide your daily dose so pliz pretty pliz, read my chapter using paid SS since I don't get even a penny for free SS. 

Tips: use free SS on translation novel. The translator still get money and use paid SS on original novel so we can get a bit money to continue living *wink*

Ikazainudin: I want readers to know, that love, hope and miracles exist. Be open and value each moment of your life like the MC's did.

Author's Thoughts

Hello Guys! I hope you enjoyed this chapter of WWCG. Personally, I've read a few CEO novels myself. I also read some FL stories like A Slight Smile Is Devastating (Love O2O), Hidden Marriage, Doomed to be Cannon Fodder, Transmigrator meets Reincarnator, A Mistaken Marriage Match: A Generation of Military Counselor, There Is an Angel in That Church (short story), Eight Treasures Trousseau, Grabbing Your Hand, Dragging you Away, A Mistaken Marriage Match: Record of Washed Grievances…

Ai~ there's a few more that I won't add to the list because it will create a wall of text. Well anyways, the reason why I read these stories is to get an idea on "WHY" the ladies love to read them.

Let's just say that it's a unique way to see a world in the eye of a lady (if you are a man of course). When done properly, the execution of the story can capture the hearts of anyone, even male readers. I believe that no matter what gender you are, as long as you find the story interesting then it doesn't matter whether you are a guy or a gal no?

Perhaps, when I'm not too busy to write my stories, I'll once again pick a romance novel to read. Hopefully, I will find another hidden gem that will bring unexpected surprises to anyone who are lucky enough to find them.

P.S I would like to thank my fellow authors, especially my senior romance authors who answered some of my questions regarding romance novels. 

To my senior authors, May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind always be at your back. May the Power Stones shine warm upon your face, and Spirit Stones fall soft upon your fields. (￣▽￣)ノ

Sometimes, she would also think that if one day she really married Gu Yinshu.
Would she be lucky enough to give birth to a daughter? In the future, they could bring their daughter back to No. 1 High School and tell her that our fate began in this school.
Of course, all of this seemed to be just a small wish.
"There's no lunch break today. I'm going to practice the piano. Why don't you come with me? " Gu Yinshu reached out and put his arm around her waist, looking at him with gentle eyes.
"practice the piano? Did that teacher chase you so hard? I feel that you've played the piano well enough. There's no need to practice during lunch break. "
Gu Yinshu smiled.
"The teacher thinks that I've played the piano very well, but I don't think it's enough. I must practice my piano better. "
"I don't think you have obsessive-compulsive disorder. Why do you have to practice so well? I think you're already very good at playing the piano. Every time I see you play the piano, I feel like a prince has appeared. "
Hearing the word "Prince" , Gu Yinshu couldn't help but want to laugh. He reached out his hand and pressed it against her forehead.
"Don't act like a fool in front of me. What Prince? "
"How am I a fool? Don't you admit that you're a prince? You're a real prince. In real life, I'm the so-called overbearing president and young master. "
"..."
"Now it's my turn to ask you. How many of these campus romance novels have you read? Your words are really too harsh. Don't think of me as the kind of boy in those little romance novels. "
When Sui Xin heard him say this, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Don't worry, I haven't read those love novels for a long time. Maybe it's because I'm getting older and older. No, I should say that I've grown up. It's impossible for me to continue putting these love novels in my eyes. "
"It's still okay to just casually read them. For example, to maintain your girlish heart. "
Sui Xin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he immediately reacted.
"How do you know about these love novels of the school weeds Have you read it before Have you read it before If you haven't read it before, how would you know about this campus Belle's romance novel? I didn't expect you, a grown man, to publish a young girl's romance novel. Do you know about it "Even I don't read that kind of novel anymore. "
"If you don't read that kind of novel, why did I read it with so much interest the last time? It's not like I'm reading you, so how could I publish that kind of stupid book? "
If it wasn't for the fact that he wanted to understand him deeply and synchronize his thoughts with him to keep up with the times, how could he really read that kind of stupid romance novel.
He was still so overbearing that the school bully fell in love with me. What the school bully and I had to say was that the school bully shouldn't be angered.
The more explicit the titles were, the more goosebumps he felt. However, he couldn't help but read them with interest.
He thought that she would be able to get some love experience from them, so he let her read them. He decided to flip through a few pages himself.
Who knew that he would confess in front of Suixin just now. It was really embarrassing for him.
He would never have read such a stupid book.
Gu Yinshu started to be arrogant again, and Sui Xin burst into laughter.
"I was bored last time. That time, the teacher punished me to copy those things, so I casually flipped through the love stories of my deskmate. "

On the day of her escape from prison, she had died unexpectedly and was reborn into the body of Madam Huo.
He was the heir to the number one financial magnate. She had charged out of nowhere and from then on, the obedient and weak Madam Huo had started to awaken. She had been trampled under her feet.
Huo Shao had expressed that since she had already been conquered, wouldn't it be too unfair for her if she did not give her body to him?
The muzzle of the gun was aimed at her head, "I only lost my wife and did not divorce. Choose between loving me or dying for love. "
Gu Ruochu,"..."
Do I still have a choice?

Adrian Weismann is a lazy and normal boy with a weird family, there’s also a chuuni one-eyed bald pirate. Adrian's life seems normal but his mother aunt and that bald pirate aren’t. What is Adrian gonna do when he gets trained by the best spy and gets symbiote as his partner? For that you’ll have to read this to find out.

It's me again, Lemon Grenade. After creating the story Reincarnated into a Shingle Sea Urchin, I realized how fast I did things and how I didn't put much effort into the story. I've spent my time thoughtfully contemplating on how to improve myself this year before I came up with a new story.

I originally promised another story that involved aliens and game elements, but I got extremely lazy during that time and temporarily gave up. But I've been working on others in secret during my silence. This time I came up with one that's unique and something I'm willing to invest more time in compared to my first one which was a prototype.

This time I won't try to speed run things. I'll try to put effort into the storyline and plot. I'll try to personalize characters and put effort into them. Unlike the first time, I have a relatively good path that I plan on following. Yes, I said that for my first novel, but complications rose so I ended it prematurely.

But I won't start releasing chapters for a while. If I do, the pressure will bring up my habit of speed running things. Once I've completed a portion of it that I've deemed satisfactory, I'll start releasing chapters.

PLEASE READ (But please don't be offended with my passionate rant)
------------------
I have reasons as to why I chose the main character to be a female.
The first reason is because I feel more enthusiastic when the character I'm imagining is female.

The second reason is because I'm tired of almost all the female Wuxia/Xianxia novels that I manage to find and read. It's very hard (and rare) to find a legit cultivation novel with a female protagonist that cultivates seriously.
Almost all female cultivation novels have a main male character that goes after them. It results in a lot of romance and little cultivation. The same could be said to multiple male characters going after the single female protagonist. It just results in too much comedy and romance, with little cultivation time taken seriously.

Examples would be Genius Doctor: Black Belly Miss and The Demonic King Chases His Wife. Although I've read the first to 300 and the second to 500, which isn't the whole, I stopped because of the romance. Although yes, there was a period of time where they separated, but even then, cultivation wasn't really taken seriously. 
(Correct me if this changes past what I've read. I'm kinda judging, but what I've said is mostly true for what I've read so far. So you can't blame me)

The ones that I can really appreciate are Kumo Desu Ga, Nani Ka? and The Good-For-Nothing Seventh Young Lady.
The first one has almost no romance with the female character and is all about evolving to become stronger in order to survive. 
The second does have multiple males going after her, but she takes cultivation very seriously and puts in effort to cultivate. If not, she's usually doing important business stuff or figuring out problems. She's not even in love with any of the male throughout the entire story, only friendship. It's extremely slow romance as she slowly falls for a guy that only has a soul, but has a personality that I like very much.

You can find plenty of male cultivation novels, and a lot of them are famous. Almost all of them seriously focus on cultivation; pursuing the Dao with not a lot of romance. Even the ones with female leads still do cultivation seriously even if the male protagonist falls in love.

But NO! When it's a female, the cold and dark world of cultivation suddenly becomes all happy and vibrant! It's all about the male guy! Yes, I have seen darkness and coldness in female cultivation novels like the ones above, but definitely not as much as one with a male MC. It's like the whole world has to be nicer just because the MC is a girl!

For male MC's, most of them struggle to the top. They have to work their way to advance by slaughtering enemies and using them as stepping stones in pursuit of the great Dao. They always severely injure themselves while approaching the brink of death just to survive. There's always gore, evil, and darkness that the MC has to traverse through while maintaining their sanity.

But NO! It's different for a female MC! They do struggle, but definitely not as much. Enemies are slaughtered and used as stepping stones, but I've never seen a female have a Dao they want to pursue. Yes they injure themselves, but definitely not as bloody and gory. Life or death situations are way less compared to the latter. Things are seemingly brighter with a female MC.

The best part of it all is that they're buffed with their seemingly harsh past life. Almost all female MC's in cultivation novels have OP medical skills, assassin skills, and military skills from their past life. I've never seen a female MC cult. novel where she was originally born in a cultivation world and has to work her way up. I've seen several male MC novel's like that, but no female.

Yes, I know male MC's are like that too, but not a lot of them actually have the female tropes. A good portion of them are just male MC's who are in high school or college, or just an average worker. They have to learn harsh things and go through mentally insane things. On the other hand, females are granted buffs and don't start this way out when they arrive. (Correct me if there is a female cultivation novel like that)

In conclusion, the males usually have the tough life while the females can just relate to their past life to get things done. Not to mention getting help from the leading male(s) character(s).
 
You really can't sympathize with the female MC's suffering in their past life as they usually do a brief overview of what their other worldly harsh life was like (sometimes male as well). The males usually have to go through hardships throughout the novel which immerses the reader (most of the time).

Well, as a person who believes in gender equality, this is a frustrating problem for me. I just wish there'd be more novels where the female has to suffer hardships physically and mentally like the male trope does without the buffer and external help from their lover. I also just wish the female would pursue the Dao and not crazily fall in love.

I know you're all saying, "But Lemon! Those novels are to catch readers that love romance!"
I know! But do you think all males and females like romance cultivation novels? 
"But these are all romance cultivation novels!"
Where's the action filled, Dao pursuing cultivation novels with female MC's?!
Where's the female MC's that pursue a lonely road of cultivation like the male MC's?!
I bet there's tons of female and male readers wanting more action-packed, little romance female Xianxia/Wuxia novels!

To make matters worse, they make the males personality traits very annoying to other males! Only the Seventh Young Lady has satisfactory male traits including the leading male.

Yes this all sounds sexist, but hear me out. 
I know some like the romance part, but as a person who loves action-filled novels, the romance part isn't all that big for me. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy romance ones as well, but only if the MC is a male and the romance is kept in check and not exaggerated like the female ones. Very rarely will I enjoy a male lead in a female cultivation (Seventh Young Lady).

Yes, I am using past life experience for the female MC, but that's because I'm lazy. I can understand why the others use this buff of their female MC's, but apparently it's easy for the male and not for the female.
-------------------------
Phew! I've let out enough of my pent-up emotions. Let's end this rant about inequality towards male and female MC's.

I will try to do as little romance as possible in this novel and keep cultivation serious. There will be a little, but I don't know if I'll include a handsome male lead or multiple male leads. It all depends on the direction of this novel.

Well, I hope you all enjoy this novel when I start releasing chapters.

The wheel spun and landed on a mysterious golden symbol which was imprinted on her soul as "Telekinesis". Then her soul vanished and reincarnated into a place known as the Five Heavens, where cultivation isn't a fantasy.

Will she survive as a newborn baby in civilization fraught with dangers? Will she be abducted by the forces of evil? Will this be another female cultivation love story?

"Close call..."

As Jessica Magiting, I wasn't fond of reading and studying at all. I would always have a "barely" passing grade when I studied in school.

The only subject I had an exceptional grade at was physical education if it wasn't obvious. Also, the character development subject.

From the start of my education, I never cared about numbers so this wasn't much of a bother to me. However, I did start to care a little bit more because when I failed an exam back in elementary, I was immediately removed from the team in a national tournament. After that, I started to do my best to pass exams. It was quite traumatizing for the seven-year-old child that loved playing volleyball.

Well, it wasn't like I didn't fully care about academics but it was more because my focus was just for sports. My brain couldn't comprehend too much useless information. Everything taught in school would just go to in one ear and out the other. Even if I forced myself to listen, I just couldn't.

So, in that sense, Jessica and Nera are basically still the same person. Just in different eras, clearly, different worlds. It's amazing now that I think about it.

But from the memories that had just returned, there was one thing that Nera had a major difference in with Jessica.

As Nera, the only thing I care about is anything that involved knighting. That's it.

But as Jessica, I had two hobbies, rather unhealthy addiction, which were volleyball and romance novels.


Romance novels.

Why?

I despised reading but romance novels became an exception. It was my past time if I wasn't playing volleyball.

When I had injured my ankle in the first year of my high school life and was forced to rest for a whole month, my friend suggested me to read.

    "Me? Read? Do you even know me?" I said with my voice shaking, audibly shocked, matched with my facial expressions.

A friend, whom I had for 6 years, was suggesting me to read.

Placing her hand on my shoulder while giving a deep, disappointed sigh.

    ["Why? You can't even do anything else right now?"]

    ["Shut up."]

    ["Pfft. Just tell me if you aren't up for the challenge."] She snickered at me, quite proudly, while crossing her arms.

She was provoking me, quite obvious now that I recall.

But at that time, the naive me was restless, uneasy, and was desperate for something to do inside my hospital room.

My pupils shook and they swiftly glared at her. She was smirking. I heaved a breath out.

    ["Oh no, Jessica. I never thought that you'd be this weak."]

    ["You're mocking me now?"]

    ["Just try it! I won't force you again if you just try reading two chapters."] Giggling, she handed me a rather thin book, compared to what she normally brings at school.

    ["Hah. Just two chapters. Seems easy enough."]


And there, I fell into her trap.

She left the book to me then came back the next day. To her surprise, even mine, I actually read past two chapters.

    ["I thought you said you didn't like reading. How are you already past 50 chapters?"] With a wide grin on her face, she closed her distance to me and crossed her arms.

Almost glared at her out of annoyance but instead, I replied grinning back.

    ["Alright, I admit it. This is pretty fun to read. It's simple and enjoyable too."]

She jumped and hugged me.

    ["I can't wait to share my recommendations! I'm not gonna let you rest!"]

Before I knew it, I got addicted to these written literature.

During that time when I was injured, I didn't have anything else to do but read novels. I still had to go to school and do schoolwork but who cares about that.

Since I couldn't go to volleyball practices right after I was discharged from the hospital, my pastime was reading romance novels.

I got hooked to them because most of them were easy reads. Some did have heavy plots, descriptive paragraphs, and lengthy pages, but most of them were cliched plotlines. Which I came to love.

Most of them were cute and adorable, and at the same time, they were cheesy and easy to make fun of.

    "Pfft. What? How could he have fallen over her even though they were so far apart? And exactly on the lips too?" I laughed loudly.

Most of what I read was stupid that it made me feel smart for the while I was reading them. I enjoyed it way too much.

    ["The bad boy trope is so stupid."]

    ["Then why are you still reading that book?"]

    ["Because it's stupid."]

    ["What's that supposed to mean?"]

    ["It's fun to read cause I love how unreal these are!"]

There were romance novels that were exceptionally good and I had fun reading them too but what I read the most was the ones with the cheesy cliched tropes. I loved reading them because it fell under the 'it's so bad that it's good' category. I loved criticizing them with my friends.

    ["Why do they react like they're gonna die from that small wound? Going to the hospital from tripping over a rock? Really?" I chuckled again. "Haaa, I love these."]

I smile as I came back to recall my novel reading days.

As Nera, I didn't have time to check out books since I was preparing to be a knight. The only things I cared about were my body, specifically my techniques and strength, and upholding the honor of our family.

But now, I have regained my precious memories.

As well as my addiction to these written works of art.

Oh god, I can't wait to read all the romance novels in this world... I wonder how many of them are here in this mansion's library?

Ah, wait a minute! I got sidetracked!

I shook my head as I realize that I was far away from my original objective. That's not the problem right now!

I'm in a novel that I read before! I'm sure of it!

I closed the books in front of me. While sighing, I closed my eyes and sat down quite violently. Leaned on the backrest of the wooden chair and let my head rest back.

I stared at the ceiling for a while with no thoughts whatsoever.

After a few minutes, my hands covered my face then I shouted. A muffled scream was heard around the library but no one was around to hear it.

How the hell did I end up here?

I am Nera mi Ponterise, the third child of the Marquess Ponterise Family. One of the founding familes and sword of the Empire. 

We pride ourselves as a family of knights. 

All my life, I've trained to become a knight, living happily as the child of this great renowned family. 

But what I didn't know is that I was reincarnated in my favorite romance novel this whole time! 

I have been living with my favorite characters and I didn't even notice! How am I going to interact with them now that I know what's going happen between their relationship?

And because this world is a romance novel, I have an arranged marriage with the Duke? I'm going to be married with this smartass jerk! I've read too much romance novels to see where this is going but will it really go that way with this guy?

How is this happening to me?

Is my life ever going to be the way I wanted it to be before I realized I was reincarnated?
